Installing Java classes into a database

Before you install a Java class into a database, you must compile it. You can install Java classes into a database as:

A single class You can install a single class into a database from a compiled class file. Class files typically have extension .class.
A JAR You can install a set of classes all at once if they are in either a compressed or uncompressed JAR file. JAR files typically have the extension .jar or .zip. Adaptive Server Anywhere supports all compressed JAR files created with the Sun JAR utility, and some other JAR compression schemes as well.

This section describes how to install Java classes once you have compiled them. You must have DBA authority to install a class or JAR.
